In my defence:

All the best Evil Geniuses have Home Counties accents. I'm simply teaching [livejournal.com profile] snapesbabe's offspring the skills she'll need in later life. (She has the "You're my [noun] now..." down pat already.)

I had my nose tickled repeatedly by a slightly chocolatey feather, and had my knees measured (they're 25 minutes, apparently), and was mistaken for SB's sister (*after* we were both introduced - "This is Jennie, and this is Jenny". "Are you all a family? Are you sisters?"), and had a Proper Sunday Roast and fruit crumble :) All of which more than made up for Hellraiser Part Something.

And I've cut back the climbing rosebush that blew off the wall last week, and knitted a whole 8 rows of Dad's scarf, and fallen asleep in a puddle of yarn, and possibly just about caught up with LJ. And not had anything alcoholic. Free cocktail bars are only a good idea at the time, people.

* reluctantly admits you might be correct about this *

People just don't believe you're evil if you're Yorkshire. There's something inherently cuddly about Yorkshireness, even though no Yorkshireman would ever admit it (possibly BECAUSE no Yorkshireman would ever admit it...)

I'll accept Sean Bean's 006 as a potential exception, but only because that means I can think about him as Sharpe :)

But he faked a posh accent for 006

Almost everything was 25. My knees were 25 minutes, and my wrists were 25 metres. My neck was just 25.

It's going to be a bit confusing on Maiden day, what with Jenny and Jennie and Holly and Holly!

Hee, I once introduced the Jen(n)i[e]/y collective to my friend Sarah as "These are Jen(n)i[e]/ys" There were four of them there at the time. By rights I should have changed my name to match Sarah, really...

OK, I have travel details! I think that the travelling NicnMup show will get to Stockport about quarter past nine tomorrow night. I'll ring you to let you know different times if we run on goth time. Is that ok?

We have to be at the airport at quarter to eight in the morning, so I am happy to order a cab, because that is just INHUMAN for kind friends.

Looking forward to seeing you.

Oh so that's where you disappeared off to.

We could have used you at pub quiz!
